I would really like some help getting a job at a gas company in a refinery. I applied for fixed equipment inspector at the Salt Lake City refinery. I'm hoping that someone on this board works for them and can help me out anyway possible. I been an inspector for the last 7 years but it was always been with a contractor doing turnarounds and new contruction. I'm a CWI and will be taking my 510 soon. Thanks for any help or advise to get a job with them.

I'm a client inspector at a fab shop here in utah. However I love it up here and would love to stay. If there is a job in a refinery then I will be happy to move.I will be laid off soon and thats why I'm asking for help.

That can be negotiable. It depends on the job and with who.

I had a buddy that moved from Lake Charles to Salt Lake City a month ago and works for Chevron there as an operator. Just put in your application. About all you can do

A job at a gas company in a refinery? You mean you want to work for a refinery? My "advice" is research all refineries, chemical, gas and specialty plants. Look at pipeline companies also.

I always apply to the plant jobs but never get interviewed. I have 8 years of experience in refineries, so I never understood why I get passed up. I worked with the operators,engineers, and plant inspectors...I know pretty much how everything works in a plant and yet probaly gets past up by someone kid out of high school. Its fustrating..

You need more certs. Go get your 570,510 and 653.

Get a 571 as well.

You at least have a chance with those.

Until then the chances are slim.

I do agree with you however they said in the job post that as long as you are a CWI and get an api cert within 1 year then you will be considered for the job. Yea I was surprised when I saw only CWI required.
